Chapter 3, Why Do We Always Encounter Each Other by Chance? (Part 2)

What surprised Zhu Yuan and the others was that the two young boys did not take the opportunity to approach them. Instead, they stood close to the side of the carriage, excitedly discussing the scenery on both sides.

The spring breeze gently blows, refreshing everyone. The middle-aged scholar pulls back the curtain of the carriage and smiles at Zhu Yuan, who is riding a tall horse, saying: "My lord, the scenery of Jiangnan is truly hard to part with at this moment"

The sound of hooves echoed, and the group was filled with enthusiasm. Only Zhu Yuan, sitting on horseback, occasionally glanced around. Everyone assumed he was admiring the scenery and thought nothing of it

She just used a mesmerizing technique, which allows one to obtain what they desire from the mouth of any powerful individual, and the other party will immediately forget that someone has inquired of them.

The young man in white sighed and said, "I do not have it either." Upon saying this, he rode his horse to the front of the exquisite young lady's carriage and called out, "Sister Ruan."

A burly man on the left side of the lord chuckled softly, "This land of Jiangnan is truly fascinating; not only are the women beautiful, but even the men are so handsome."

The young man in white seemed not to understand the implications of his words; he merely looked at Zhu Yuan. After observing him intently for a moment, he noticed that the expressions of the others present were simultaneously filled with displeasure. He could not help but perform another bow and laughed heartily, saying: "Gentlemen, please forgive us. We are merely rustic commoners who have never encountered prominent figures. Seeing your distinguished presence, we assumed you were from the capital and merely wished to seek a path forward."

With his consent, the two teams merged into one and proceeded forward in a winding manner

The young girl nodded slightly and said softly, "I lived in the capital when I was a child." At this point, she gathered her courage and looked at the crowd again. Sure enough, as she raised her head, she met the gaze of Zhu Yuanhan, who was smiling and watching her.

The young boy in the blue attire was clearly very shy; he lowered his head, shook it, and said hesitantly, "No."

Under the gaze of the crowd, the young girl Yu Bai's face quickly flushed with two shades of red. As she shyly lowered her head, she swiftly cast a glance at Zhu Yuan. This glance truly shimmered like the autumn waves, clearly carrying the girl's admiration and reserve.

Upon mentioning beauties, the lord felt a stir in his heart, recalling the pair of eyes as bright as a misty lake from last night. He shook his head and said: "The beauties here are charming and alluring, yet they lack a certain flavor. The women in the capital are straightforward and pragmatic, but they also lack a certain flavor"

With a casual gesture from the middle-aged scholar, four or five middle-aged men dressed in blue surrounded the lord, their gazes fixed intensely on the group of young men

A young man in white rode forward, bowed to the crowd, and said in a clear voice: "May I ask if you are all heading to the capital?"

The middle-aged scholar replied淡淡地: "This place is still several thousand miles away from the capital. I merely wish to enjoy a good time in Jiangnan." Unaware of the other party's intentions, he directly declined.

Upon hearing the lord mention beauties, the knights all listened intently. At that moment, a tall man with strikingly deep features laughed and said, "My lord, you have seen all the beauties of the world. As for us, just the mention of a beauty is enough to stir our blood."

Zhu Yuan was looking back, and upon hearing this, he laughed heartily and said: "Indeed! However, it is difficult to fulfill the imperial decree"

Liang Xiaoyue rushed back to her residence, took out a brocade pouch from a bundle, and murmured: wealth, fame, beauty

Hahaha

The middle-aged scholar glanced at Zhu Yuan and noticed him intently gazing at the beauty, so he turned to the young man in white and said with a smile: "Young brother, why not join us for the time being, and we can part ways later?"

After walking for a while, Zhu Yuan's gaze could not help but glance again at the exquisite beauty's carriage, but the curtains were drawn deeply, revealing only the beauty's face

The cavalry drew closer and soon appeared before the lord's entourage. A voice called out, "Hush, hush—" as the two young men simultaneously reined in their horses and turned to face the lord and his companions

Although she became a demon halfway through her journey, and although she had tried a limited number of spells along the way, most of which failed and only a few succeeded, Liang Xiaoyue has always been full of confidence in herself

She seemed a bit shy, glanced at the crowd, and quickly withdrew her head.

Powerlessly placing the pouch back in its original spot, she paced back and forth in the room, her large eyes blinking rapidly: "He has all of these, and besides, my magic is limited, I cannot give more, what should I do?"

Propping her chin on her hand, she gazed expectantly out the window, thinking: I need to deal with Zhu Yuan as soon as possible. Sigh, after I handle him, there will still be blood and tears. What method can I use to obtain the blood and tears?

At that moment, a rapid sound of hooves approached from a nearby fork in the road. Before long, a group of people appeared before everyone.

A burst of laughter came forth

After being troubled for quite a while, she chuckled and said happily, "It doesn't matter, I will just follow him, and I am sure I can come up with a solution." Just as this thought crossed her mind, she clapped her hands and thought proudly: That's right, if he really has no wishes, I have another idea: I can create troubles for him. At that time, I will descend from the heavens and help him solve his problems. Hee hee hee, this idea is really good, I am truly a clever child! If he really has no wishes, I have another idea: I can create troubles for him. At that time, I will descend from the heavens and help him solve his problems. Hee hee hee, this idea is really good, I am truly a clever child!

Amidst the anticipation of the crowd, the curtain was drawn back once more, revealing the exquisite beauty of the young girl. As soon as she appeared, she cast her gaze towards Zhu Yuan, meeting his smiling stare, which made her blush and shyly lower her head.

Zhu Yuan was staring intently at the young girl, his face revealing admiration. The young man in white quickly turned his head to look at the green mountains across from him. At that moment, a glimmer of cunning swiftly appeared in his bright eyes

The young man in white, handsome and ethereal, smiled, revealing two dimples. He was eagerly admiring the scenery along the official road while asking the young companion beside him, "Little Third Brother, have you ever been to the capital?"

At that moment, a young girl poked her head out of the carriage, and as soon as she appeared, Zhu Yuan and the others couldn't help but brighten their eyes simultaneously: this girl had an oval face, snow-white skin, and exquisite features, making her a rare beauty

The young man in white, not finding it unusual, joyfully said: "This is the best it could be."

The young man in white asked directly, "Sister Ruan, have you ever been to the capital?"

As soon as this group of people appeared, everyone's gaze was immediately drawn to them. Two tall horses were seen, each ridden by a handsome young man. Behind them, two large horse-drawn carriages followed closely.

The middle-aged scholar sighed and said, "My lord, since you have come to Jiangnan, why not take in those few beauties?"
